Not a fan of Ziggler but nobody can deny his ability to make anyone look like a million bucks.

Also I know not everyone here watches TNA so I'm gonna put my thoughts in a spoiler tag, but I was just thinking of how TNA completely $#@!ed up James Storm:

How is anyone suppose to have confidence in this guy? They've completely told us that this guy is a failure, a moron, and someone you simply can't trust to get it done.

-He should of won the World title at Lockdown. At that time, the 5-6 month feud hype, and the promos were not only good, but indicators that Storm (and fans since he was hot at the time) would finally get the payoff and win the World title in his home city after the long struggle. He loses, then loses his smile and disappears.

-He comes back, gets a 20 point headstart on the BFG series and still doesn't win!

-He finally beats Roode in the hardcore match at BFG. Great moment that should of put an end to the feud and prove that Storm can deliver in big moments. What happens? They restart the feud for NO REASON, Storm wins the number 1 contender spot only to lose it to Roode because he took Roode's bait like a moron. On top of that, the way he lost in the match made him look like a bigger geek. This loss completely negated Storm's win at BFG.

Storm will never get to the level he could of been at earlier this year. He'll be in a triple threat with Roode and Hardy where he'll lose again. Then maybe he'll get some more World title matches where he'll lose again. Why buy into a guy that continuously fails? I think the crowd somewhat gave up on him to. Compare his reactions from around Lockdown time to now. He was pushed as the number 1 face even though he was arguably number 2. Right now you can argue that he's being pushed as the number 2 face but he's more like number 3 or 4 on the roster right now.
Thoughts?

-- There are rumors that there will be some sort of 'celebration' on RAW tonight involving CM Punk and his one year anniversary with the WWE title. There have also been rumblings of debuting a new WWE title in the near future. No word on if that will happen tonight. We do know that a new WWE title design has been being worked on for the past several months and photos of the unfinished product have been leaked online.

I hate James Storm, so glad Roode took his number one contenders hip off him

Unless they're redesigning it, the new belt that was leaked in pictures is going to look as bad or even worse than the current one in my opinion.
CM Punk keeps hounding them as to when the new belt is going to be used but they keep fobbing him off, so he's just about as much in the dark as he is.

The only time that it would be sensible to change the belt now (unless they just randomly do it) if is The Rock wins it at Royal Rumble or WrestleMania.
